Self Care
Portland, Oregon, United States
About
Mixing the washed out anti-exuberance of Beach Fossils style jangle with the slightly obtuse left field of The Velvet Underground aesthetic, this Portland based act provides psyche with the best of jangly inflections. - Jangle Pop Hub 2020 Self Care come back to life with “Just a Ghost” North Bay indie outfit Self Care has been delving into the more ethereal side of indie rock in the last few years. Their new album Just a Ghost drops today via Earth Libraries records, and like the title suggests, the record is ghosty as hell. The album portrays the birth, life, and death of a romantic relationship from the POV of vocalist and songwriter Ryan Keller. Written and Recoded by Ryan Keller, and mixed by Kyle Lindauer, the new record is full of whatever the music equivalent of lens flare is. The band's affinity for dense and shimmering instrumentation is balanced by some lo-fi production aesthetics, making Just a Ghost feel simultaneously massive and weightless. Phil Spector vibes, ya know? Like hearing The Flaming Lips on cassette tape but it's a cassette tape you left sitting on the dashboard on a hot summer day. - The Bay Bridged The album ‘Ghost’ is that rollercoaster ride of certainty and contrasts, always heavy with demands, and the person you’d become to make sure that weight of forbearance, is never neglected. - Come Here Floyd
